WHAT I JUST FINISHED READING
I finished Tony Kusher's "Angels in America". What a bonkers, delightful play. I'd love to watch it live.
I also read the first two runs of Young Justic comics related to the show as I complete my rewatch. Not much to report there, except that I still consider this world's version of Dick/Barbara unforgivably boring.
WHAT I'M READING NOW
I'm still following a few ongoing comic runs: Batman: Wayne Family Adventures, Harley Quinn: Black + White + Redder, JRed Hood: Outlaws, Spirit World, Tales of The Titans, The Invincible Iron Man (the Annual was BAD), Waller vs. Wildstorm... I also started "The Cull", a 5-issues long miniseries from Image Comics that intrigued me with its first issue.
Most importantly, I caught up with "Monstress". This comic canNOT be overrated, I swear. I'm enjoying it so, so much. For a little while one of the main character annoyed me to unspeakable lengths; she's supposed to represent ~~hope in the darkest moments and she felt more like a device, and a poorly used one at that, than a character in her own right, but in the last few volumes her writing has improved vastly. She feels more real, more integrated with the rest of the story. And I'm not quite caught up with "Saga", but soon... soon.
ETA: today I got to read the last issue of the Iron Man run and
Lol. Lmao even.
WHAT I'LL READ NEXT
When I finish beta-reading my friend's novel, I want to pick up James Goldman's "The Lion in Winter" and Catherynne M. Valente's "The Refrigerator Monologues". And, of course. More comics. I've been eyeing yet another ongoing run called "Dark Knights of Steel".
